Student and Parent demographic information—including gender and ethnicity—is shared with schools that the family chooses when applying via the SAO, sending SSAT Scores, or sharing Snapshot results. This information is also shared with schools when families opt-into our service to connect families with schools that may be the right fit. Data shared with schools is done via secure portals.
